“I'm very excited about what Rett & his team are building. I'm investing because I think there is a real opportunity to do well by doing good here. The simple yet powerful notion of holding space for another person just might be the cure for what ails us. The possibility that companies may be able ot use this tool to drive life satisfaction with their employees is a big idea that could create powerful positive change. I couldn't be more excited to support Sholder in this endeavor.”
